I think that is a wonderful sort of education.
In a similar way, and this leads me to another point, I am still disturbed with the American laxity towards respect of adults. Likely, some of this unease with the Western mode makes itself felt in my teaching. Our culture is very formal and respectful towards adults. Children, for instance, often use formal titles when addressing adults, and we tend to be very polite. Many American that I know interpret this as subservience, but it is not so. It is rather respect towards an elder age. Americans seem to lack this, respecting youth rather than age. It is matters such as these that invariably and unavoidably effect my teaching.
Being a female also affects my teaching. Females are supposed to be softer, more compassionate, more intuitive, and less judgmental than the masculine sex. We are known as the mothering breed. Of course, this is a generalization, and there are always females such as Margaret Thatcher or Hilary Clinton -- or even Evita -- that break these rules and are masculine forms incarnate.
Nonetheless, I think...
This is not always positive.
I also have a tougher time with classroom discipline. Males are supposed to be more assertive, militant, aggressive, and so forth. Seemingly and presumably, they would have an easier time with classroom discipline and enjoy it more than I, a female would. Disciplining students certainly seems to be one of my challenges, and I would love to possess a tinge of the masculine aptitude in this area.
In short, when gender enters the classroom, I think that I possess both the advantages and disadvantages of being a female. I am soft and, therefore, more compassionate and understanding towards and of my students, managing to actively listen to them, provide them with the needed empathy, and I have also a certain intuition that males lack.
On the other hand -- and my students realize this -- I lack the necessary masculine steel and strength required for being the expert disciplinarian.
culture affects the way students learn mathematics, and how different cultures learn differently. Students in Korea and Japan learn differently than students in the United States for a number of reasons. Statistically, Asian students seem to do better at mathematics than American children do, and they way they learn their mathematics at an early age may be on reason this is so. Identification and Investigation US students often show lower test
In fact, it is interesting to note that violent television and video games become more likely to lead to aggression in children as they get older (Krcmar, 1998, p. 251). Factors that cause this include the fact that from new-born to the age of eight, children pay an increasing amount of visual attention to television. This increase levels off at the age of eight. Moreover, as they get older, children
Organizational culture affects nursing practice and care across several dimensions. From job satisfaction to organizational effectiveness to patient perceptions of care, the culture of nursing organization has widespread implications. As an employee in a psychiatric hospital, I have observed that the cultural organization among staff has far reaching effects that touch nearly all facets in the workplace. The culture of the hospital I work at would be considered constructive, positive
Culture Psych Culture and Human Psychology: An Examination of Gift-Giving in Different Nations Culture is a complex phenomenon that evades being defined in terms that are at once comprehensive and concrete -- any entirely firm definition of culture is bound to leave out some elements of some cultures, and any definition that is all-inclusive is necessarily unspecific in certain regards. Put broadly, culture can be thought of as the sum total of
Silence too is an important part of communication in Singapore. It is customary to pause before answering a question, to indicate that the person has given the question the appropriate thought and consideration that is needed. Westerners habit of responding quickly to a question, to Singaporeans, often indicates thoughtlessness and rude behavior. Their demeanor is typically calm, and Westerners more aggressive style is often seen as off putting ("Singapore:
.....organisational environment can be an important source of wellbeing for individuals. This is particularly true if the environment encourages social interactions. Indeed, literature has demonstrated that social interactions in an organisation are crucial for generating positive emotions, which may in turn contribute to desirable employee outcomes such as lower cases of interpersonal conflict, reduced absenteeism, increased loyalty, and higher productivity (Biggio & Cortese, 2013). The connection between positive employee outcomes
